JWA Book Talks offer conversations with authors at the intersection of gender, history, and Jewish culture. Join us on Thursday, June 27, at 8PM ET for a discussion with Yaëlle Azagury and Frances Malino, editors and translators of Mazaltob: A Novel.
This first English translation of Bendahan’s nuanced and moving novel is a masterly exploration of the language, religion, and quotidian customs constraining North African Jewish women on the cusp of emancipation and decolonization.
